Martin and his team are professional and hardworking. My yard was a mess and they took the time to weed my yard, pick up palm fronds (which had just been knocked over the night before and had not been included in the original estimate, though he did not charge me more for that). His pricing is super reasonable and the attention to detail is appreciated. I definitely will hire him again.

It was a real pleasure working with Martin. He was willing to work with me on my schedule, and did a great job. The new concrete looks great. Very fair price.

Not sure this box is big enough to list all the positive comments I have for Creative Landscapes and how pleased we are with the work that was done. Martin was a real pleasure to work with and I enjoyed his sense of humor. Needless to say I would highly recommend this company for any landscape work and if I could give more stars I certainly would. When I initially reached out for a quote, Martin contacted me right away and came by within a day to discuss the scope of the project in more detail and to see the actual area to ensure the quote he provided was as accurate as possible. The specs were for a front sitting area that was initially to be 8' x 10' (ended up being 10' x 17') as well as a tree and flowers/shrubs to be planted. He provided me with a few quotes based on the different types of material to be used because we hadn't made a final decision on what to use for either the base or wall. I'd obtained a few other quotes as well, but found the ones from Creative Landscapes were either lower or still very competitive. Ultimately I feel we We discussed the pros and cons of using pavers versus flagstone as well as whether a block wall or a wall with stucco would look best for the overall look. I was impressed that he noted the color (beige) of our existing stone wall along the driveway should have really been a grey stone since our house is a gray. It's this type of attention to detail that I felt was a real asset for someone managing my project to have. While he would make recommendations/suggestions, the final decision(s) were always up to us to make. While the majority of work was done by Martin himself, he did bring in help as needed. For example, he brought in a person who's expertise is to install block walls to do that work. Even though I'd been provided a quote, I'd also told Martin I had a budget that I wanted to stay within. So he especially went out of his way to look for ways to keep the costs at a minimum. Yet was still able to find a quality flagstone as well as the perfect color wall caps at reasonable prices. Martin even did incidental work. One day he sprayed our lawn to kill the dandelions and then fixed some sprinklers that weren't spraying correctly. Also took the time to explain and show me how to change the spray pattern and direction on the sprinklers so I could maintain them as necessary. Even provided me with a little tool that certainly makes it easy to do. Having this additional knowledge is really invaluable to someone like me who likes to be self sufficient whenever possible. Even our neighbors who had been watching as the project progressed and were very impressed with the quality of work and overall look it added to the house. When I am ready to do my backyard landscaping, this will be the only company I call. Thank you Martin for turning our vision into a beautiful reality! Carol D.
